Bullying Prevention Program
Bullying has turned into a severe problem in numerous schools, affecting children from kindergarten through high school. Students are tormented regularly, regardless of their age differences, resulting in depression, low self-esteem, social isolation, a lack of desire to attend school, and even suicide among the victims. School authorities must develop an appropriate method that will assist in eliminating the problem as a consequence of this situation.
Georgia has anti-bullying rules and regulations that protect individuals from the act. The policy state that the student who is found bullying shall be sent to an alternative school. However, this policy is yet to be implemented entirely in learning across Georgia, notably Georgia University. Therefore, these learning institutions need to incorporate this policy to reduce and prevent cases of students bullying.
